Using trimage on linux server edition

See original GitHub issue

Hey guys!

First of all, thanks for this awesome tool! It’s really good 😃

I’m trying to use it on my web app and it runs on Ubuntu Lucid 64bit Server Edition. When I try to run it, I get the following error message:

trimage.py: cannot connect to X server

Is there a way to install this dependecty and start to work with it? Or is there another way? Thanks mates!

Here are the steps I took to get this working: To Install: sudo apt-get install trimage sudo apt-get install xvfb sudo apt-get install libpng-dev

To Run: /usr/bin/xvfb-run -a trimage theImage.png

In the end however, I stuck with just using optipng and jpegoptim instead as there wasn’t much of a compression gain.
